Mango: My damnation

by solopes

I have a terrible spell - wherever I go, I can't escape the "universal trilogy" - Zara, Mango, Cortefiel. China gave me some rest, but Macau took me back to reality - there they are! As everywhere else... Next time I will go to the North Pole.

Pedestrian shopping streets: Western shops

by Willettsworld

The main concentration of shopping streets are located in the centre of the city, between the Ruins of St Paul and the Senate Building. The best thing is, is that as the streets are narrow and twisty, the majority of them are pedestrian only which makes things far more relaxing as you can concentrate on what the shops are selling rather than any traffic.

Haggling: Haggling

by ZiOOlek

It is a must to huggle over prices everywhere. I wanted to buy a chinesse style sweater and I said that I will buy it but for a half price of what had been said and shop assistant agreed without problems.

Choi Heong Yuen Bakery Macau: The BEST souvenir shop in MACAU

by Wayy

This shop offers a very good environment for shopping, especially their shop located in Taipa. Freshly made cakes could be found. The aroma of the baked cakes is simply irrestable. I've tried almost all almond cakes in town and I believe Choi Heong Yuen is the BEST! Good Service too! Best Souvenir in Macau: Charcoal Baked Almond Cakes, Egg Rolls with Seaweed and Shredded Pork Jerky, Freshly Grilled Pork Jerky, Low Sugar Peanut Candies

Pasteleria Koi Kei: Going Nuts over Seaweed Wrapped Wafers

by xuessium

The shop has several branches in Macau (as well as in Hong Kong and Guangzhou). There's one branch very near to the Ruins of St.Paul along Rua de S.Paulo. You can't miss it. The crowd is there. One of their specialties is the seaweed wrapped wafer. Crispy sweet on the inside with a great seaweed twist of a taste. About 22-25 patacas per box.

"Da San Ba" Bakery: Going Nuts over Almond Cookies!

by xuessium

You won't missed it. Together with its competitor, this bakery is sited along the main street leading to the Ruins of St.Paul. Just follow the smell of freshly oven-baked Almond cookies. Packed with people jostling for bargains and cries from the teasers imploring you to come in and buy something, the store love to display its freshly baked goods along the street to lure you in. Just don't let the maddening crowd scares you off! The lovely almond cookies of course! 22pataca for a small pack.

Largo Senado & Rua de Sao Paulo

by Ewingjr98

THE place to shop in Macau is the area between the Leal Senado and Sao Paulo. These streets, including Rua de Sao Paulo and the Largo Senado, are packed with fancy stores, small restaurants, bakeries, gift shops, and a variety of other stores. It's a great place to stroll, shop, eat, and people-watch!

Shopping Tips

by keeweechic

Hong Kong dollars are widely accepted in Macau so no need to change any money.Some stores may require a minimum purchase to accept a credit card and some may also apply 2-3% service charge on credit purchase even though this is not legalMacau is duty free, so don't be caught my offers of 'duty free' buying.Always ask for a receipt with the name of the store or company printed on it and always check the price on the receipt before you leave the store.Stores which tour groups take you to are usually higher in price than other stores.

Lord Stow's Bakery: Eggtart

by thelittlevoice

This shop was established since 1989. It's listed on my guidebook so I thought I would try it. The eggtart is really yummy! I bought home some for my mum, she is very hard to be pleased when it comes to bakery stuff but she really loves it. Eggtart 4 pieces = 22MOP
